Finding a sataII card is proving to be very difficult. The reason is that I only have PCI no PCI express. I haven't see a single one listed as SATAII compatible and have spent a bit time googling. I'd settle for a PCI card that someone can vouch for. I did find a message on an Australian overclockers list that indicated that fellow had used sil3114 (mine is 3112a) card to run SATAII at 640gb. But of course those guys are all talking about `Windows' of one strain or another so may or may not mean much. I don't supposed you'd have a tip about a PCI sata card capable of handling newer SATAII would you? _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
